The difference between “check in” and “register”

After selecting “check-in” from the V2 attendance portal homepage and searching for and selecting a participant, you may see two sections in their attendance portal profile.

• Your registered classes: this section shows classes that the participant has already registered for. This means the student just has to check-in.
• Register and check-in for another class: this section shows classes that the participant could register for from the attendance portal directly. Clicking “register” from here will automatically register and check-in the student to the class for that day.

Here is a picture of what this looks like:

Checking into pre-registered classes from the V2 attendance portal

To check into pre-registered classes:

1. Open the V2 attendance portal.
2. Choose check-in and search for the member, or scan the student’s QR code.
3. Click “check-in” next to the class listed under “your registered classes.”

 

 

Since the student pre-registered for the class, the attendance will already be connected to the correct trial or membership registration. If you accidentally check someone in, click “checked in” again to undo the check-in. Here is a picture of what to look for:

Registering for classes from the V2 attendance portal

To register for a class from the V2 attendance portal:

1. Open the V2 attendance portal.
2. Choose check-in and search for the member, or scan the student’s QR code.
3. Click “register” next to the class listed under “register and check-in for another class.”
4. If the student is registered to more than one program or trial that can attend the class, choose which registration to apply the attendance towards so that attendance limits and rank requirements are counted correctly.
5. Refreshing the page will show the class in the “your registered classes” section already checked in.

 

 

If you need to cancel a registration, click on the three dots next to “checked in” and click “cancel registration.” Here are pictures of what this process looks like:

Why you have to select a student’s membership

When registering for a class from the attendance portal, the participant may need to select a trial or membership. This occurs when the student is in more than one active trial or membership. 

 

Selecting a trial or membership is required so that the system can connect the attendance to the correct registration. This ensures that attendance limits and rank requirements for each registration are counted correctly.

The attendance portal keeps returning back to the homepage.

In order to keep the check-in process moving efficiently, the system is designed to time out after:

• Roughly 10 seconds of inactivity in the search screen or student profiles.
• Roughly 1 minute of inactivity of the camera being open for QR scanning.
